The wild turkey season has now ended in Georgia. Despite the overall population of birds in the state having declined in recent years, hunters still managed to harvest 12,616 gobblers in 2026. Floyd County in West Georgia was the leader in establishing that total, contributing 372.

On public lands, Berry College Wildlife Management Area in Floyd County also led the way with 36 kills. The Chattahoochee National Forest lands outside of WMAs contributed 212 of the birds. In all, the public-land turkey harvest was just over 2,000 gobblers.
